Yellow Science

Yellow Science: "Global warming may or may not be 'the greatest scam in history,' as it was recently called by John Coleman, a prominent meteorologist and the founder of the Weather Channel. Certainly, however, under the scientific method it does not rise to the level of an 'item of physical knowledge.'

Nevertheless, the acceptance of man-made global warming as scientific fact has become so prevalent that the secretary-general of the United Nations, Ban Ki-Moon, recently declared: 'The debate is over. It's time to discuss solutions.' Leaving aside the question of the secretary-general's qualifications, that is certainly one of the most antiscientific statements ever made."

some yellow journalism on yellow science, and why? for those who may be curious, yellow?
